The Montréal Context Population : City of Montréal: 2 millions Metropolitain area: 4 millions Central Business District: main regional pole of employment (300 000 jobs) Mass and Active Transport : Modal share in mass transit : 35% (morning peak hours) and increasing Mass transit motorised travel towards downtown: 74 % (66% including active transport) 2nd city in North America for modal share in mass transit 20th - Copenhagenize Index Bicycles Friendly Cities Subway: most productive in 27 studied worldwide (Imperial College London) Electrification: 11 619 Electric vehicules in Québec (48 % of EV in Canada) First north american downtown with on-street charging stations Ville de Montréal / 2 décembre 2016 3 de 19
Montréal GHG Emissions Reduction Plan GHG emissions in 2009: 14 MT of C02 eq. Evolution 1990-2009 Transportation sector : + 8 % + 350 000 t of C02 eq. Ville de Montréal / 2 décembre 2016 4 de 19
Montréal GHG Emissions Reduction Plan SOLUTIONS Properly finance GHG emission reduction projects in the transportation sector Gather data to better evaluate the factors that influence GHG emissions in transportation and the means of reducing them Further develop public transit Optimize parking Effectively manage transportation demand Develop active transportation Develop means of transportation that offer an alternative to solo driving (ride-sharing and taxis) Reduce GHG emissions per vehicle Make it easier to govern transport projects Ville de Montréal / 2 décembre 2016 5 de 19
Montréal GHG Emissions Reduction Plan Consultation on solutions to reduce Montréal a dependence on fossil fuels Make driving less enticing Rethink urban design, stop urban sprawl, support mixed-use planning, and plan full, dense and userfriendly neighbourhoods Set examples Intensify efforts to achieve a 5% switch from the use of personal vehicles to public transit (2020 vs. 2013) Increase the modal share of active transportation Keep heavy vehicles and delivery trucks from circulating in the city during rush hour Create pilot projects in the following areas of truck transportation Launch awareness-raising campaigns on behaviours to reduce fossil fuel consumption on a day-to-day basis.

Transportation Electrification Strategy Montréal intends to take an international leadership role to fight climate change International and national targets cannot be achieved without city s contribution Montréal s goal: 30% decrease of 1990-level greenhouse gases (GHG) by 2020, focused on a transportation-related energy transition Municipal actions on three fronts: Development of active and public transportation and on highdensity/diversified land use Gradual electrification of private and public vehicles Promotion sustainable mobility among local residents Ville de Montréal / 2 décembre 2016 7 de 19
Transportation Electrification Strategy CITY S VISION AND OBJECTIVES Montréal s land use goals and transportation electrification strategy based on the guidelines set out in the City plans and policies: The Master Plan Agglomeration Land Use and Development Plan The Transportation Plan The 2016-2020 Montréal Community Sustainable Development Plan The Economic Development Strategy The Corporate GHG Emissions Reduction Plan The Montreal Community GHG Emissions Reduction Plan The Parking Policy The Rolling Stock Green Policy In accordance with the policy guidelines announced by the Government of Québec and various partners.
